Would you like to get away for the holidays on a FABULOUS 28-day Panama Canal Cruise ? Then get ready to board the luxurious MS Statendam departing December 9th , 2011 from Ft. Lauderdale ! I'm a young senior (early 60's ) seeking a cruise companion to share an inside stateroom (large) . I'm non-smoker , like to keep things tidy , snore lightly , have open-seating in the MDR . I've done several cruises and would like to hear from other MALE cruisers who would prefer to avoid the solo-supplement . We might even do some shore excursions together ( if you wish to do so ) . We will be passing through the Panama Canal twice ( full transit ) , as this is a round-trip cruise from Ft. Lauderdale . There are several ports-of-call on the itinerary including : Colombia , Mexico , Guatemala , Nicaragua , Costa Rica and a day in San Diego , Ca. ! Hope to hear from you soon , Joel
